When consent is submitted, the Cookiebot script will determine if the conditions for loading the content of the iframe are met, and enables the iframe if this is the case. On subsequent page requests where the visitor has already submitted a consent, the iframe content will automatically load in accordance with a visitor’s consent state.
Please note that YouTube offers you to serve videos from the alternative domain www.youtube-nocookie.com which doesn’t use HTTP cookies. However, the alternative domain still stores information on a visitor’s device, by using the browser’s HTML Locale Storage instead, which also requires consent.
